Tips goes to owner. I have a proof. They never pay tips to staff. To be honest, the food is tasty. But they steal money... read more

Went for the Sunday Buffet. Probably the food in Fargo. I wish I would have taken some pictures.

VERY EAGER to try from shared experiences of the food offerings, services, and ambiance-- strictly a matter of time but word-of-mouth is--- a MUST!! We frequent their neighbors Osaka and its always a TOUGH DEBATE on who wins out on the final "choice" haha read more

Went to celebrate our anniversary. only one other table when we arrived. ordered our food and I received my dish but my partner did not. we asked for his food and I finished my meal and his still had not arrived. we finally told them to cancel his food and went to pay. they thought we going to pay for the food we never received, then had the nerve to argue. We will not be returning and are both sharing with our friends and family as this is unacceptable for any restaurant, even of short staffed. Two other tables were sat while I was eating and they received their food so that is an unacceptable excuse. Not the way we were hoping to spend time together to celebrate. read more

Ah, the Yak, the birthplace of my Indian food obsession. I'm not sure what first made me try this place. I'd driven past it a hundred times on 25th before really paying attention. Maybe it was the goofy name, or just wanting to try something different, but boy is this place the real deal. In all seriousness, Himalayan Yak has the best Indian/ Nepali food I have ever tried. Their Tikka Masala is especially a superstar, I mean I can't even make up how darn good it is. At first, I thought it was possibly just because it was the first place I tried- so you know, it's a honeymoon phase in my mind and nothing will beat my first time trying. But as I've been to more and more Indian places I realized it's not that, it's just because Yak is straight good. Yak knows how to spice it. Everything I've tried just has been amazing- the spice levels are just right where other places mess it up. The Tikka and Rogan Josh are my favorites to date. And they cook their lamb exactly right, it's so soft and tender and brings tears of joy to my eyes. (I love my Indian food, okay?) Thank you Yak for existing. read more

Great food. Chicken chili, tikka masala, vegetable biryani, garlic naan, vegetable jalfrezi. You can't go wrong.

The lunch buffet was very good all the food was very tasty jasmine rice and Marsalis chicken so good . the naan just like I remember from when I was a kid from a friend of my moms . We will be back !! read more

The food was amazing and the restaurant is very clean with gorgeous artwork on the walls.

Lunch buffet is awesome. Get to try so many different dishes that I wouldn't normally order. Love that they have chicken tikka masala on the buffet along with two types of rice and naan. The rice pudding is great too for a sweet ending! There is a spinach and vegetable mixture as well that is one of my favorites. The only thing that would make this a 5 star for me would be paneer tikka masala on the buffet as well. Not my favorite tikka masala in town, but when it's buffet style, it will keep drawing me back!! read more

Server was great and the food is amazing, I had palak and the Naan basket, the wait is short compared to other restaurants and the food is probably some of the best I've ever eaten at any restaurant read more

I had a Himalayan restaurant in South Dakota once and did not realize the cuisine and how tasty it was, so when I was in the Fargo area, I saw this on the menu and was immediately intrigued. Himalayan cuisine is similar to Indian food, so if you like Indian, this is the place for you. We ordered two different dishes and naan bread. I'm a huge goat/lamb meat fan, so that was what I ordered with different sauce/flavors. Everything was so good and full of flavor. we ended up so full and had food to go for the next day. Would highly recommend if you're in the area and want to try a different cuisine. read more

Best tikka missala I've ever had!!!! Still haven't found one as good. It's rich and creamy and goes perfectly with their garlic naan

I didn't really believe the other reviews, but I wanted a buffet so I decided to check it out First, buffet is 1130-2pm. I got there at 445pm. So I had to order from the menu. I chose Rogan Jush with beef. It was excellent. There was enough for me to take home leftovers for another meal. The waiter suggested the bread, then it didn't come I until I had my meal. That turned out to be a good the also. The garlic flat bread was fantastic with some curry sauce from my plate. All the reviews saying how good this place is, are pretty much right on. read more

Nummy, nummy, nummy! We wanted to try a lot and share things so we got samosas, some potstickers, goat in a delicious sauce, and chicken curry and garlic naan. It was $50 but it fed us for breakfast the next morning too! The sweet waiter told us the buffet wasn't open that day and that might be the perfect way to sample a variety. Our waiter warned us the goat had a lot of bones, so very true, but tasty, like beef. There was free tea, milky and sweet. A delight! read more

Did takeout while staying at the Holiday Inn next to this restaurant and was very satisfied with it. Great food, good value and nice people. Had the masala wings, Chana masala and a garlic naan. Neither the web site nor web comments let me know that they serve beer and wine so I grabbed my own wine and they don't allow corkage. Otherwise, I'd have been happy to have dined in. Very happy with the experience. read more

The buffet was Luke warm. Service was slow and not very helpful. We had never been there before and we were not familiar with the cuisine.

Good $11 buffet! Father and son were friendly. Fun sampling a little of all the different sauces, chickens and rices. Soup was good. And the seeds you chew on on the way out were interesting. It tasted like licorice with little sugar cubes. read more

Service was pretty bad. Appetizer was brought after meal. Server was very rude to us at the table and stomped off after we discussed appetizer(from appetizers menu should have been brought first) He doubled down and said how long they take....I said its on your appetizers menu. I said for our appetizer when ordering. Server genuinely angered me and gave not a care. I miss Saru and Nabin Everest Tikka house. This would have never happened. read more

The food itself is a solid four and a half stars. The service is what totally dings this place. One person to cover the entire restaurant during the busy evening service meant our wait times were super long. Things got worse as the evening wore on. Our party of three ordered three main dishes, naan and an appetizer. Food was very delicious ad cooked to perfection. Fried rice was very tasty and flavorful too. Plenty of leftovers for the next couple of days. The mango chicken seems like a variation on the sweet and sour type dishes, and is very good. We might return here - if nothing might call ahead and place an order to go. read more

We arrived a little late not knowing that the buffet is only between 11-2. Oh well either way we ordered of the menu. I ordered a chicken dish with nuts and raisins. What a delicious treat that was we also had garlic flat bread which was pure heaven. I have never had anything taste as good as this. This was an early celebration of Valentines dinner ;) so I'm glad it was good. I look forward to coming back to try the buffet and other options of the menu. The server we had was amazing as well and extremely helpful. So thank you... read more

After missing lunch I found myself starving and surfing Yelp! for a great meal. After reading some reviews for the Yak I was convinced that I had to try it - I needed some tender chicken and some naan. However, it was 3:25 pm and I saw that they didn't open until 4:30...I was conflicted. Fortunately, my wife called me with a minor "emergency" at home and by the time we worked that out it was 4:10 so I headed towards the Himalayas....I'm so glad I did. As soon as you are seated they bring you a glass and a carafe of ice water, a basket of flat bread and some chutneys/toppings. The toppings included a diced tomato/onion mix, a spicy green chutney and a sweet red chutney. They were all good but the red one was very runny considering it was served with flatbread. Next came the mango lassi - it was very good with great mango flavor and just the right thickness. It could have been a little colder but other than that it was awesome. For dinner I ordered chicken chilli and rosemary naan. The chilli came out quick with a large order of rice. The chicken is battered and deep fried and mixed with onions and peppers and covered in a spicy red sauce. I ordered it extra spicy and while it was hot it certainly wasn't super spicy. The chicken was tender and tasty although some pieces were unidentifiable parts - this isn't all white breast meat. This is chicken with flavor. The star of the show was probably the rosemary naan. While I was disappointed that it did not come out with my food (I was halfway through the chilli when it arrived), it was definitely worth the wait. It was hot and it was incredible. One of the best baskets of naan I've had in a long time. It was so good that I couldn't bear to leave any behind and, with no shame, wolfed down the entire order. Did I mention that is it was awesome? Fargo is a surprisingly great town for food - every time I'm there I find 2 or 3 new places I want to try. However, this is easily one of my favorite places so far and will definitely be here the next time I'm in town! read more

Things may change, but as for now, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. The person who took our money to pay for our food as we left was very nice and the person who cleared our dishes was very very nice. The decor is almost there. The dirty wall as you walk in the door just as we pulled up where the old sign used to be detracted from how it looked a lot. The buffet had food left around the front of it. Some guy in a white shirt looked like he was an owner postulating his self-importance on the phone, helping himself to the buffet the whole time we were at the restaurant. I think he worked there because he walked into the kitchen at one point. He should take pointers from his staff. The food was cold (rice, yellow rice, and everything else I tried. The flavor wasn't as good. I couldn't eat it because I kept thinking of how bacteria builds in food unless you keep it at a certain temperature. This place used to be good apparently (others have told me). I hope they can survive by improving quality. Good luck guys. I may try again someday if someone else wants to go there, but I wouldn't choose it and don't recommend this restaurant. read more

Delicious meal. The masala wings were well seasoned and came out hot (for some reason a lot of wings elsewhere are served lukewarm). The Daal Bhat Tarkari Set entree was fantastic and everything on the tray was top notch. I opted for the the non-vegetarian option with goat, which had a generous amount of goat meat included. Even as an obligate carnivore, I am certain the vegetarian option would not disappoint. read more

For Indian/Nepali food that is TRULY authentic and not covered in cream and oil ... this is the place to go. We have had many things Including Channa Masala (outstanding), fried Oakra (better than my moms), chicken Pasanda, they were awesome. If you ask for really spicy... it comes SPICY- and that is how you eat this kind of food. In general, doing buffets at Indian restaurants is like going to the Golden Corral and getting steak and ribs... it's just not the same. So try a la carte. Trust me... it's legit. read more

Good south Asian food for the FM area. Decent lunch buffet as well. Good bang for buck with the munch buffet

Visiting from California, I was not expecting much in terms of Indian food in a small town Fargo. I saw when I visited Himalayan Yak I had my expectations low. But, the moment I entered the restaurant I was impressed by simple and ethnic decor. It was the lunchtime and they had a buffet going on. But they also had Ala carte options available. Buffet had around 4 non-vegetarian and 4 vegetarian options. The food was fresh and tasted delicious. Even though it was a busy day and they were quite noticeably shortstaffed the staff was working very hard and promptly to help the patrons . There was hot tea delicious gulab jaamons and mango custard. I would be definitely coming back when I visit Fargo next time. read more

Food never came. Restaurant was about 25% full. I have yet to get refunded for the order i never received.

Just became my favorite Indian restaurant in Fargo. Mind you, it's my first of many visits. The Tikka Masala was great and the service was good too. Hand the mango lassi to drink which was a first for me. Very tasty. Rosemary Naan was delicious. Highly recommend this place. read more

This was a nice restaurant and it's always fun to try something different. My last experience with Indian food wasn't great. But this restaurant served us some nice food. Pros: They have an extensive vegetarian menu. All veg items have the option to add meat if you wish. We started with the yak appetizer. I've never had yak before. Tastes like lamb. The menu also has pictures of the various dishes next to the item, which definitely helps the inexperienced. Cons: The service was a bit slow. It feels like a family restaurant. But the food quality was worth the wait. I also wish that they had more drink options. It's coke products, water, or hot chai tea. I prefer regular iced tea and didn't see that they had that. I just can't stand soda. I will definitely go back here again. At about $13-16/entree it's affordable. read more

I've been doing Vegan for about a month and it's difficult to go out and find food. So I saw this place had good rating thought I'd give I a try. They had a buffet that looked delicious but not many choices for me. The waiter guided me of what I could order. I chose gobi manchurian. It did take a while to get the meal because it was busy . Let me tell you it was worth the wait. You could tell is was fresh . The flavors were amazing with the basmati rice . Holy cow hit it out the park. Great job I will be back. It will be hard to try anything else. read more

This is my favorite restaurant in Fargo at this time. Every dish I have gotten is fresh, delicious and fragrant.

What a joke. We waited over an hour for our online order, other people waited over an hour and a half. Ridiculously understaffed but they're fine with making you wait. Don't go unless you free all day. read more

Only place around with certain flavors and typically good to great quality food. Chicken seafood , rice ,breads all good . Goat is one of those rare finds they have and know how to cook.
